opis
During recent years our recordings of the baroque operas Ariadne by Conradi and Thésée and Psyché by Lully have received Grammy nominations in the Best Opera Production category. This month, again in cooperation with the Boston Early Music Festival, cpo is releasing more baroque operas – this time by Marc Antoine Charpentier – proving to be no less diverse and entertaining. The focus is formed by Charpentier’s Actéon, a creation inspired by the Italian cantata and the precursor of its French counterpart, which would first reach maturity in the early eighteenth century. Here the French composer employs what he learned from his Italian teacher Giacomo Carissimi toward the goal of exploring the intimate drama of a cantata intended for private chambers. He skillfully exploits the evocative power of the music and the vocal conventions of the time in order to present scenes displaying the transforming power of love.
